    Well, a country church in a small (less than 800 pop) town will work as well. That's where this one is. Many closed up storefronts, not a lot left to the town, but the church is there.

        Does the steeple have a belfry (bell tower with bell)? Of course, I have to take your word for it that it has a steeple.............

            Eli, I can't see your picture here at work but I'm assuming it's of a pretty new barn of within the last 20 years or so? Basically the new ones that look like they are made of the vinyl?

            I will get it on the way home today then.

                Here's a barn. Not as new as I really wanted but that one's owners aren't in town right now and I didn't feel right taking a picture without them here.



                Here's the next tag...an informational sign that tells you to really think about stopping in the previous town (less than 500 feet back) for gas as nothing else exists for quite awhile. Doesn't matter the distance.

                  Haha, good one!
                  We are going out for a ride now, but I would have to travel half a day around here to find something like that...
                  I'll keep my eyes open anyway....

                    I don't think we have any of those signs in MN. There should be some, but there aren't.

                        So should I give this a few more days or go get a new one tomorrow when I ride the bike into work?

                          Yeah, I would, but my wife says I have some unfinished work to do here at home....

                            One more day. some of those other people in the western states where those signs are common should be able to find one. Or, I'll look in my 200+ photos and see if I took one of those pictures with my bike in it last month....

                              Well, I looked through all my trip pictures and in a lapsed moment, I apparently never took a picture of my bike under one of those "No services for 120 miles" signs.....

                                Alright, well, I will take a new picture on the way home tonight.
